The Swamp - Rescue Mission

Artist: Pwnisher (Clinton Jones)

The Swamp | Rescue Mission This piece was crafted over five weeks with the goal of creating a detailed, photorealistic environment that tells a story. I really focused on the atmosphere, lighting and character in order to warrant an emotional reaction from the render. I am inspired by a number of things: --- (ONE) An obsession with fog, rain, bad weather and the peace it brings me. It allows me to really slow down and be inspired by the beauty around me. --- (TWO) Ambient music. Not that cheap spa music, I mean good stuff by Mount Shrine, Warmth, Boards of Canada, Brian Eno, Stars of the Lid and Ryuchi Sakamoto + Alva Noto to name a few of my favorites. It immediately puts me in another world. It's the perfect idea starter. --- (THREE) Video games like Silent Hill, Shadow of the Colossus, The Last of Us 2, Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding are big ones for me. They all combine atmosphere, character, and music into a perfect playable story. --- (FOUR) And travel. Exploring new worlds gets me excited like no other, especially when combined with ambient music and moody weather! St. John's, Newfoundland offered a lot of the inspiration for this render. --- The creation of this piece was live-streamed on my YouTube channel over the course of 5 weeks. It was the inception for a massive montage of renders by other powerful 3D artists that you can find on my channel as well.
